Optical Dispensary

Optical Dispensary

Overview

The student run Optical Dispensary, located at Tri-C's Metropolitan Campus, is under the direct supervision of licensed opticians. Optical Technology students will gain experience in the field by helping students, employees and community members with the fitting and purchase of eyeglasses. Patients will be required to bring a current prescription as prescribed by an ophthalmologist or optometrist. A current prescription is unexpired and must not be older than two years.

Eyeglass Purchase Options

Single vision and bifocal lenses are available to fit a variety of frame designs. Fees will vary depending on the choice of lenses and frames. Fees must be paid prior to optical services being provided.
